I guess I will go ahead and throw my name in the ring for consideration. What a wonderful thing you are doing! I love upvoting people's posts and comments, but I always feel bad that my votes often don't even bring people one cent. :(
I'm still figuring out my focus here on Steemit. I'm a journalist by trade, so sometimes I will write posts that highlight things I'm reporting on and provide more details. But other times I just want to write lighthearted posts about my cats (and I'm planning a post soon about a cruise I just got back from taking!)
I love to upvote independent media contributors here, who have found some of their livelihood harmed by tougher rules on Facebook and YouTube. I also like to vote on posts about pets, and I like to follow posts by people I've met through my local Steemit meetup group. Those folks made a HUGE difference in helping me be more interested in Steemit, and I'd love to do the same for others one day once I'm more established. :) Two of my Steemit friends are currently traveling the country in their RV and sharing their adventures via @thedodgemahal! Their adventure is just starting out and it's already inspiring. If you haven't seen it, you should check it out! :)
So in summary, I'm still figuring out my focus here on Steemit. But I love to bring people a bit of joy by upvoting and commenting, and I'm planning to focus even more on Steemit in the coming months. I don't know if I have enough votes yet to qualify for this. If I don't, that's OK, I'll keep following and learning. :)
What a great comment. I have checked out your page and you are making some pretty great comments to people here on this platform. You are moving in the right direction. Keep up the great work. This was a great comment entry for considerarion.
Awww, thank you so much! I'm glad to hear that I am moving in the right direction. :)
This is a fabulous way to give back. I love seeing how many people on Steemit choose to share their stake to benefit others. Nice one!
I'd love to see my buddy @philm.music enter. He just joined... waiting for him to post soon. The guy is a musical genius. Can't wait to see him share his talent. When I started, I was lucky enough to receive a delegation from the #adoptaminnow initiative started by @whatsup. My minnow mama was @topkpop, who became a mentor and gave me a temporary delegation that helped huge. Yay for generous hearts! 💖
I'm not going to enter myself into the contest because @nomad-magus is already generously sponsoring me with a delegation. Just want to say that what you're doing is awesome and I think I speak for everyone when I say we really appreciate it. Getting that delegation meant everything to me and has newly motivated me to work my butt off growing my own presence on this platform, plus it feels SO good to be able to support others with upvotes that actually mean something. Keep it up. :)
Thank you. If you think there is someone that is deserving of the delegation, tag them in this post so they can enter. I am glad that you have seen the benefits of how great a delegation can be and how awesome it is to be able to use your vote to support others and their work. That is what sets this platform apart from others.
I recommend @kimberlylane! I don't know if she uses Busy or has Ginabot, so I will link her here. Thank you again!
@derangedvisions loving what you do! Not gonna promote myself either just like @malloryblythe. A while ago I had a problem with storing my movies on D.tube. @tarazkp helped me with it by delegating something from his SP. Still thankful to him for doing that. So gonna follow you and resteem this action!
Think I'll put @trexxie on the list for this delegation. Guy is doing great things with his movies in that awesome suit. He's trying to make the world a better place to give everyone a smile. Not getting the attention he deserves I think.
Keep up the good work you're doing for the community😀👍
In response of @Guchtere I want to tell about @Trexxie as well!
I met this guy in Austria where I saw a dinosaur on ski's
What an awesome dude it was! He showed me his Steemit account with all the crazy stuff he did! I believe he just started and he is not even close to stopping! So as Trexxie would say: "Keep sharing the Dinosaur love!!"
RAAAGGGHH!! Thank you so much @Guchtere @Dboontje
And your love to dinosaurs is appreciated!
LOL, I am Honored to be mentioned in this way. Every now and then, I see someone who has SUCCESS Written all over them, and I try to become a part of that success. @derangedvisions, you were one of those people. Take note of our nearly Identical Rep Scores... and while I do not concentrate on that, it is a factor that I work on a bit. I have been here so much longer and you have caught me! Glad I could maybe be a small part of that. I just hope that someday when all my protégés are Millionaires and Billionaires, they might throw old UNDY a big upvote now and again
:-D
Don't worry dad, I won't forget about you. lol
😀
Ok, so first of all. Why are you doing it? Well, cause you are Wes! I've told you from the start. You have a huge heart. You know I'm a fan of your photography, and how hard you work to make this a better world. And I'm not saying all of this to get a delegation, I've told you this before. Let's just use this comment as an excuse to say it all again.
On one hand you know how much I want to help the people from my country. This would be of a BIG help. I have so many talented friends that have given up on steemit, and it makes me sad, but I understand, not everyone curates in spanish. And I'm not talking about pitty votes, I mean really curate valuable content that is not being recognized.
On the other hand, you know I've been working hard to curate, and I've met some really awesome talented people on the way. It happens a lot, that the post for some reason, doesn't comply with the standards required to get a big upvote, and that's were I normally try to contact them and help them out to make it better, and it's right there were I wish I had more to help them out. I still vote, even though I know it's not worth much!
I have helped translate posts and did some markdowns to people I don't even know. Just to help them out. But it's something I can't do all the time. Having a bit more voting power sure would be helpful to spread a bit more love and support to all those talented people I've met on the way that have had a hard time getting noticed and rewarded. I do it anyways, but it's more of a moral support, and it some times feels frustrating not being able to do a bit more.
Well, you know who I am. And whatever you decide, I'll still be happy to know you are helping a whole bunch of people.
Un gran abrazo para ti, mi querido amigo.
@gabyoraa, you have already proven to be a valuable member of the Steemit Community and do so much to help with curation and help those people to be noticed. I am not going to wait until the end of the 7 days to let you know that you are the first to receive the 120SP delegation.
I know that you will use the delegation to help out as many people as you can. Thank you for what you are doing here on Steemit and for the people you are helping.
Awwwww, wow. You just made me cry haha. Helping others is the best feeling ever! And to receive help to be able help others even more, is even better! I can't even find the words to thank you Wes.
Congratulations @gabyoraa! Don’t know you yet but will start to follow you. Your reply and early win speaks for themselves😎
Good luck with curation and helping out others here on Steemit.
Thanks! @guchtere Wes is an awesome guy. I'll work hard to make good use of that delegation!
I have no doubts about that @gabyoraa!
BTW I really like your tattoo! Do you have a bigger picture from it?
Congrats Gaby!! Very deserving!!! <3 Awesome choice Wes!
This is so kind and generous of you. I keep loving this place more each time.
You're right. Folks here are amazing. I've had so much help in my two months here.
I know some amazing people doing such wonderful work I'm going to mention them here to get their attention. @dreemsteem for the @welcomewagon, @littlenewthings, @bitrocker2020, @zord189, @maverickfoo, @asapers, @buddyup, @calumam.
I was just about to make a comment about some amazing people when I saw that @kchitrah has already mentioned them. But I'll just mention them again. @dreemsteem and her @welcomewagon are doing such a great job supporting newbies and have helped me a whole lot. It would be great if they could get some extra help to do more of that awesome support work. And @calumam has made me a super beautiful avatar pic for the @buddyup discord channel. A lovely gesture that made me feel welcome and appreciated. I am having some trouble participating properly because of the blooming time difference (and a lack of time) but I think @buddyup is a wonderful community. I hope they put in an entry for this delegation as it would be so well deserved.
This is such an inspiring and generous initiative, bro!
I want to put @preventsuicide into the foray because depression, anxiety, PTSD and other mental health issues that can precipitate suicidal thoughts and tendencies are on the rise.
As you know from our chats and your experience as a veteran, we want to reach as many beautiful hearts out there in our community before they make any final decisions about their life.
We also are reaching out to those who have survived and/or continue to survive these mental health issues because their story of experience and survival can help others out there that are too shy, embarrassed or scared to reach out, yet need to feel they are not alone in their struggle.
So how will delegation help?
Simple. Because we wish to reward those that are bravely making helpful content about this issue as much as possible.
It's early days yet, but we see Prevent Suicide playing an important role in the Steemit community and hopefully will help save lives here.
You are going to be doing amazing things to help those in need. I wish you the best of luck and will be considering you for the delegation. Try to get this account a little more active in the community so that it is more known to everyone.
Thanks so much bro.
Crazy busy times at the moment for me personally, but still, I'm compiling relevant posts to curate for this page to get help out there, raise awareness, as well as raise the VP/SP so that we can reward great, positive content in order to encourage people to blog about their experiences with this issue. (if you see any good content that fits the bill, please pass that on to me in the Preventsuicide Discord server)
Anyway, as you know, I'm in this mission for the long game.
Blessings my friend...
Upvoted and resteemed. These kind of initiatives and the ones who are really envolved in the community deserve all exposure they can get. As of why would I could help steemit with the delegation? I honestly think the best way of contributing is doing what I'm doing now, dunno if having a delegation would change it :) I like to post mainly about wildlife and join the photography contests, and that will be the value I'll bring to steemit. As I've seen written over and over, it's about creating good content and doing is consistently, and that's what I aim for. And I've seen a lot of excellent work from people that like me, just recently joined the platform. So I dont foresee no shortage of good posting on the community, and probably initiatives like yours just incentivate good work even more! Thanks again for this, and all the great photo contests!
It has been great seeing the photos that you have entered. I am looking forward to seeing more of your work. Keep doing awesome work.
Wow, that comment made my day; that kind of feedback is really welcome. And I can retribute: although I haven't been here long, I see you're really envolved and proactive in steemit community... so keep doing YOUR awesome work too ;) Big thanks!
Not only a quality content makes us success as said in Tamil proverb
Quality= hardwork
Some what upvote = smart work
Then surely it gives success I can see many of the newbie are working hard and making a good post they we unnoticed by anyone. I don't know how to project them on @curie project. So I wish it will be opt for me.
The "newb" needs to get around an read, more than Post! What @derangedvisions cites in his article above, @crimsonclad told him "get out there and COMMENT, and up-vote others" I did that as well, in fact I knew that going into steemit. I had a very successful account on a gun forum, but it did not pay anyone LOL!!! I was #6 in likes received, and all the people above me, #1 thru 5 were there because I gave out more LIKES to them! That alone told me I could MAKE BANK here on Steemit! IT WORKS!
Oh! Dude help the good one not like that #5 😂 I m sure that they were poor content creator.
